Please use the forums correctly. Questions about Onyx belong in the Onyx forum, to where I'm moving this thread.
Thank you. |

There is at least one good alternative: ereader-store.de. Booxtor, one of its representatives, is very active in this forum.

Billi is right.
The best support is done by http://ereader-store.eu - Booxtor. There is only one official site : the chinese site of Onyx International. Booxtor works with them. Last edited by Randy11; 06-26-2013 at 10:14 AM. |

This is the onyx site I am talking about
https://onyx-boox.com/ The reason why I prefer to order from the is that they have this book light which I can't find in other stores https://onyx-boox.com/shop/led-light...ers-booxlight/ teotjunk |

That site is not the 'official' Onyx website, it's just a reseller that uses the name Onyx.
Search this forum for buyers' experiences, compare this with the experiences of Booxtor's customers, and draw your own conclusions. |

Be careful, this model is not the standard model : http://ereader-store.eu. The firmwares given in this forum couldn't be used with the ArtaTech model : https://onyx-boox.com/, they are only for the standard model. ArtaTech makes their firmware and lock the firmware update with a specific password.
If you want a light, take only the light. About the place where to buy, read this thread : https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=172797 Last edited by Randy11; 06-27-2013 at 10:03 AM. |

Old question :-)
The black and the white have the same hardware and firmware. Some people prefer the white because the white frame around the text is like the margin around the text in a paperbook. Some people prefer the black because the contrast seems better. I have a with reader, but with the sun, the frame is, for me, too bright, I prefer the black frame of my M92. Search in the forum for the various opinions. Last edited by Randy11; 07-04-2013 at 06:06 AM. |
